When I first got a kitchen
I baked salmon
and decided, from then on
fish every day!
I only made it once
I’m too impatient for ovens
and still eat from the bag and can
although I do fry up
mushrooms and onions
with my eggs in the morning
I feel this kitchen
has saved my life
although maybe
it’s the soft bed
that came along with it.
